Expect “Punching the shark” to replace “jumping the shark”

Dean Brougham decided that he wasn’t going to become shark food. He’s way too full of win for shark food, anyhow. Dean was attacked by a shark south of Adelaide, Australia. So how is Dean living to tell the tale? He punched the shark. In the face.

“I just started beating it, just trying to get rid of it, and then it let me go and then I was just straight towards the cliffs,” he said.

Bizarre, indeed, but at least the story has a happy ending. And a moral: when attacked by a shark, attack back. Sharks don’t like to have to fight for their supper.
